"Every spring there is a Nessie sighting or controversy to get people to Inverness. There is NO other reason to go there."

Sure there is. I was in the USAF on leave and backpacked with a buddy from the Med to the Isle of Skye and back for a month. Got off at the Inverness train station. Caught the bus to Loch Ness where our bed-and breakfast was. About 2 miles from the little museum there.

The air temp was 74F, the water temp was the same and the rain was the same. We put our stuff under a big tree and undressed and climbed over those glacial rocks with a bar of soap, a rag and a shaver to clean ourselves up. That's on a ledge. One more step or two and you will go straight down hundreds of feet if you can't swim.

Well actually there is Boleskine housek, on the banks of the Loch Ness. The home of Alistair Crowley, (another Loch Ness monster).
